  Quite good. Attractive, Easy drinking, fairly low tannin and grip. Nicely balanced cherry red fruit, slight pleasant earthiness on finish . Not sure about further improvement. A “mid Atlantic” Pinot, between old and new world. My impressions seem slightly different from others here so might be bottle variation.

  Still somewhat young. But has the makings of a keeper. Darker than some vintages. Displaying BM's distinctive cola. Some bramble that will soften with time.

  PnP.
  
  Earthy cherry raspberry and mushroom on the nose and palate. Earthy finish. A bit austere. Better on the nose.

  Good quality Pinot from BC, one of the region’s best producers for this varietal. Very young, but still approachable. Deep, solid Ruby, grippy tannins, good structure and well balanced. Nose is earthy (preference), with strawberries and red fruit in the foreground. Palate confirms this, with minerality. This leans toward Burgundy or even more Oregon in style, but is still uniquely B.C. Good QPR as far as BC Pinot goes, or any Pinot for that matter. It only gets better/more complex as you climb the Blue Mountain ladder toward their Reserve and Single Vineyard selections. Benefits from decanting and serving slightly chilled.
